    These tyres may be cheap but they are cheap for a reason, they are terrible. I bought a pair of these as i was a bit short of finances at the time and at £110 for a pair of 255/35 18's they were cheap. I wasn't expecting them to grip like slicks but a bit of grip would have been nice. In the wet theya re absolutely lethal, and i really do mean lethal. My wife refused to drive the car in the wet because it almost left the road at 20mph. You have to drive the car permanantly expecting the tyres ot lose traction and slide. I'm a class 1 advanced driver and cover over 100,000 miles per year as a traffic officer in the UK police and have never experienced tyres as bad as these. I've ridden a motorbike, on a track, in the rain on slicks before and can honestly say the slicks have more grip in the wet than these. I cannot stress enough how much i would stay away from these. Buy some Falken 452's instead they're not much more in price. Also, the road noise from the Fullrun's is unbearable. They ahve a constant whine at anything above 20mph and it gets worse as you build up speed. The tyres were on for 3000km and are now in the bin.
